Chuwi Vi8 Plus Unboxing And First Impressions

Chuwi Vi8 Plus is now out and I got hold of one yesterday, it’s basically a black Chuwi Hi8 Pro with the Vi8’s lower spec screen. (1280 x 800 resolution) The Type-C port, Atom X5 Z8300, 2GB of Ram and 32GB of the Hi8 Pro are there. It’s $91.99 from Banggood.com with the 8% off coupon f4644d.

First impressions:

Just like the Hi8 build, but in black

Speaker is average, same as the Hi8’s

The 1280 x 800 screen could be brighter, the 1920 x 1200 panel is definitely brighter

Latest Windows 10 Home with the November update included.

19.6 GB free, better than some 32GB eMMC tablets which only have around 14GB

Decent build for the price, feels solid

Ncard eMMC, either a Foree or BWIN card. Same as the Hi8 and Vi8’s.

Type-C port seems to b e only USB 2.0 Type-C, which is a shame. No real advantage having it.

My vi 8 plus has problem with SD card, after reboot SD is gone, once take out and then back in, works… reboot the tablet, bum sd card gone 🙁 And the touch screen goes weired when charging.
Othervise its wery nice tablet, love it 🙂
